Hi everyone I currently have a honda Nt650V Deauville and a Kawasaki ZXR750 I am rebuilding. Recently I also bought a second hand 2008 Piaggio MP3 400ie. I did have a Hayabusa 1300 last year but I am pretty badly disabled and have been cutting down to see if it makes things easier for me. I haven't had a good start with the MP3 which didn't ride as well as a Mp3 400LT I tested at a local dealer. It pulls away at higher rpm so maybe someone has changed the clutch. I am fine when the bike is moving apart from rear brake on a pedal. Otherwise its maneouvering the bike plus getting & off it. actually the busa turns out easier than the MP3 at this time until I get a few things sorted then it shoulb be ideal especially when i get worse (Ive had MS 23 years).
I will be very grateful for any iseas or help you can give me with things I may need to do with the Piaggio.

hi mate welcome, you love your bikes,,, cool
if the scoot is pulling away at high revs it will probably mean the variator rollers ( there are eight of them ) have been more than likely changed to a lower gram weight each .. standard rollers for your scoot designated size is MP3 400 25x17
beedspeed show standard weights http://beedspeed.com/html-pages/variato ... -chart.htm" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Mp3 400 07-08 25x17 18.6gms x8
the clutch will be standard so i would not expect to look there
someone probably put in lighter rollers, the only way to see is if you weigh one on a kitchen digital scales.
if you want to buy the standard rollers x 8 then the best price is £18.50 delivered here http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/scooter-rolle ... 53fc5d8854" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
piaggio want £7.59 each
i you need advise dont be afraid to post it in the garage.. i do all the time
